Again last night, this evening, and into the night I had strong distress trying to figure out

why a line of kitchen upper wall outlets were dead. Lo and behold, St Anthony of Padua led me to a GFCI behind our large countertop microwave where I knew there was a receptacle but not a GFCI. It was tripped. May have been a nightlight I rigged up with a new base that holds the bulb in an outlet up the line. I lost sleep last nite thinking I'm gonna need an electrician costing $$$. Tonite I read extensively about these receptacles. I knew about them but this one would not reset. Oy! Then I got a message in my spirit to go back there and hit test first then hold reset. It worked twice! This was his assist after I cried out to him.

I magnify your wondrous works, Holy St. Anthony, and will continue to give testimony. I love you in XC!☦️

This could have saved me a lot of electricians' bills over the years. I will now definitely use it.

A plumber is here in my house replacing a faucet that had a slow steady drip - costly enough, in that water is inexpensive in my area and could have dripped indefinitely without a huge cost to me.

Now he has informed that there is a clog in the pipe (which was not there previously); he is using an auger to open the pipe, but now tells me he must drill through the wall., etc.

I also love St. Anthony of Padua, but did not get him on the job soon enough in this case.
Now I need the patron of patience in trying circumstances (although I realize this is just nothing in the big picture.)
Thank you for reminding me of the efficacy of calling for (saintly) help.

I am needy and will continue to ask for help in everything. In a manner 'I' am presently 'lost' so to speak. I need finding myself.

Peace be unto you while in household repairs.
